BLK ProjeK — Libertad Urban Farm

Libertad Urban Farm is a 4,500-sq-ft women-led urban farm in Hunts Point, South Bronx, run by The BLK ProjeK (now Black Feminist Project), the food-justice org founded in 2006 by Tanya Fields. Mission: economic development and food sovereignty for women of color through urban agriculture.

What they do

The BLK ProjeK — now operating as the Black Feminist Project — runs Libertad Urban Farm, a 4,500-square-foot women-led growing space in Hunts Point, South Bronx. The farm is part of a broader program of culturally-relevant food-justice work: urban agriculture, public-space beautification, community programming, and economic-development opportunities for under-served women of color. Founder and executive director Tanya Fields left a corporate job in 2006 to build the organization, and continues to lead it through an explicitly radical Black-feminist lens.

Why it’s listed

Three substantive filters that [[directory|the directory]] tracks directly: Black-led, women-led, and rooted in [[food-sovereignty|food sovereignty]] for a historically extracted-from neighborhood (Hunts Point holds the largest food distribution hub in the U.S. while its residents face food insecurity). The Libertad farm is small in square-footage but heavy in signal — it’s economic and political infrastructure built by the same community it feeds, which is what aligned commerce looks like at the neighborhood scale.
